Whats up Mike welcome... Im a newb on here too. Seems like your the middleman between a few of us and the VA Beach crew. Me, MWDouglas and Northline76 are up above your head in Gloucester... the next Penninsula up

 

how about this weekend we get together and put my lift kit on?? . i'll buy the bud light

 

Im game. I saw the kit but which one is it?

 

Tuff Country 3.5''

 

i will be in great bridge on sat could meet for a quick few min early on sat.

 

where you at and do you have tools or a garage?

 

How bout Saturday or Sunday this weekend? I'm off tomorrow too if any one wants to meet up and chat lol

 

Hey guys great news! almost done swapping heads on the jeep, been a real ***** but is almost done. I am pretty sure this will fix my jeep. Hoping to have it running this weekend.

 

Hey man Ill help dont know for how long though are you doing it at the hobbie shop on oceana. Also dude word for the wise!!!!!! Go buy pb blaster or something equivelent and spray the crap out of all the shock bolts (will save a lot of time) starting today! Especially the rear upper shock mount bolts.

Guiness GOOODDDD

 

I literally sprayed every major bolt being removed for my lift twice a week for two months before my lift kit, and I didn't break one bolt, not even the shock ones. PB blaster is god.

 

yeah i've been using pb blaster since i ordered the kit two weeks ago now. havent hit up the rear upper shock bolts tho. i'ma go spray them today. ima have to use a straw or something to get em' good.
at first the plan was to put it on at the base hobby shop but then my buddy offered his garage to do it in but he had to cancel on me for this past weekend so now im not sure what i'm going to do. i'm working in norfolk now too so i cant just get to oceana whenever.

 

you guys that buy cherokees down here are lucky. All my cherokees have come from the north east and the salt on the roads in winter destroys these things. I got lucky on my current xj, i didnt pb blast anything and the only thing i broke was the upper shock mounts.

 

Mine was bought and driven in New Jersey from Dec 2000 to April 2008, and there is very little rust. Just have to take care of it, mine has under body coating.

 

If I was there I would be in for some wrenchin. I will be home in 12 days but only for 2 weeks and I think the wifee has me pretty busy although I will be doing my JCR steering while home.

 

what lift would yall recommend for a three inch lift? i wanna replace the most of the suspension
